Q1: In a guitar, two strings A and B made of same material are slightly out of tune and produce beats of frequency 6 Hz. When tension in B is slightly decreased, the beat frequency increases to 7 Hz. If the frequency of A is 530 Hz, the original frequency of B will be : [2020]
(a) 536 Hz
(b) 537 Hz
(c) 523 Hz
(d) 524 Hz
Ans: (d)
Frequency of A = fA = 530 Hz, fB = ?
when Tension B ↓ then fB ↓, Beat Freq. ↑ to 7
so if fB = 524 then Beat ↑ when fB ↓
So fB = 524 Hz

Q2: A string is stretched between fixed points separated by 75.0 cm. It is observed to have resonant frequencies of 420 Hz and 315 Hz. There are no other resonant frequencies between these two. The lowest resonant frequency for this string is [2015]
(a) 10.5 Hz
(b) 105 Hz
(c) 155 Hz
(d) 205 Hz
Ans: (b)
In a stretched string all multiples of frequencies can be obtained i.e., if fundamental frequency is n then higher frequencies will be 2n, 3n, 4n
So, the difference between any two successive frequencies will be 'n'
According to question, n = 420 – 315 = 105Hz
So the lowest frequency of the string is 105 Hz.
